A lending library promoting seed-saving in Halifax, Nova Scotia

Welcome to the Halifax Heritage Seed Library Initiative!

The Halifax Heritage Seed Library Initiative (or HHSL) is an initiative to form seed libraries in the HRM – which are community-organized collections of non-hybridized, non-GMO seeds that are available for the public to “borrow” for free.

There is no membership required; only a strong encouragement for each borrower to save some seeds from their “borrowed” plants once they become harvestable and return a portion to their closest seed library, to ensure that the HHSL grows out of a local community initiative.
